Verastem Oncology, a biopharmaceutical company committed to advancing new medicines for patients with cancer, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in a Phase 1/2 trial in China, conducted by GenFleet Therapeutics, evaluating GFH375/VS-7375, a KRAS G12D (ON/OFF) inhibitor.
GFH375/VS-7375, was selected as Verastem's lead discovery program from its collaboration with GenFleet established in 2023. GFH375/VS-7375 is an oral, potent and selective KRAS G12D dual inhibitor of ON (GTP) and OFF (GDP) states. Preclinical data presented at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting in April 2024 demonstrated oral bioavailability across preclinical species, strong anti-tumor activity as a single agent and potency against intracranial tumor models suggesting the potential to treat brain metastases.
